The HMC561 is a x2 active broadband frequency multiplier chip utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology. When driven by a +5 dBm signal, the multiplier provides +17 dBm typical output power from 8 to 21 GHz and the Fo and 3Fo isolations are 15 dBc at 16 GHz. The HMC561 is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains for Pt to Pt & VSAT Radios yielding reduced parts count vs. traditional approaches. The low additivie SSB Phase Noise of -139 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps maintain good system noise performance. APPLICATIONS * Clock Generation Applications: SONET OC-192 & SDH STM-64 * Point-to-Point & VSAT Radios * Test Instrumentation * Military & Space * High Output Power: +17 dBm * Low Input Power Drive: 0 to +6 dBm * Fo Isolation: 15 dBc @ Fout= 16 GHz
